when I started to think about it (how the strings should be stripped in to peaces and stuff like that ) I remembered something. I quess it was in the interview of ruud that floating point number will not be supported... or something like that.
offcourse you can make your own floating point numbers with udf's in 4....but when you have this simple "42 and that's it" should the val return then an error code of somekind? instead of the number? some error for not pure number and some for more than one.
I've allways thinked that val should count every letter in the string. even thou they are alphas.
